Like the Grail, the Ark of the Covenant was an object endowed with supernatural powers. The Ark is described in the Bible as a large wooden chest on carrying poles, gilded inside and out with gold, and having a solid gold lid surmounted by two golden winged figures1.

The Ark remains the most sacred artifact of the Jews despite their losing it long ago. Without it, their ancestors would not have overcome certain obstacles, vanquished their enemies, received guidance from it, or prospered into the eventual nation of Israel. Therefore the entire Judeo-Christian paradigm owes its existence to the Ark of the Covenant.

Is the Bible’s descriptions of the Ark accurate? Well, the Old Testament is a fictional narrative sewn together from sometimes factual patches. These patches are eyewitness accounts passed down through the oral traditions and documents of the various tribes that existed in Canaan when the Old Testament and its subsequent revisions were being drafted, around the 8th century B.C. By creating a single continuous narrative from these, the diverse people in central Canaan could be united into what subsequently became the nation of Israel2.

The ancient history of Israel and the story of Exodus as told in the Bible are composited from separate historical episodes. Isolated parts are true within their original contexts, just that they may be out of order, superimposed, embellished, or borrowed from other cultures.

I haven’t pieced together the true and complete history of Israel and the Ark, but my research over the last year has given me some basic bearing. Since it’s too lengthy and tangential to cover here in detail, I will just list some examples of what historical persons and events may have been reworked centuries later into the Old Testament narrative:

The story of Moses being drawn from a river comes from an Akkadian legend relating the genesis of their king, Sargon the Great3, or else both draw from an even older myth. The old Akkadians allegedly existed 2700 – 2200 B.C4. Another theory says they were the Hyksos Dynasty, which existed 1628 – 1550 B.C5.

The two pharaohs of the Exodus were Pepi II and Merenre II circa 2200 B.C. They were the last pharaohs of the Old Kingdom of Egypt6. This is almost a thousand years before conventional Biblical chronology places the Exodus.

The cataclysm that ended the Old Kingdom and killed Merenre II in the “place of the whirlpool” occurred around 2190 B.C. and was an early contributor to the stories of Passover, the Ten Plagues, and the Parting of the Sea of Reeds7.

In 1628 B.C., the Mediterranean super-volcano of Thera exploded, forcing migrations out of Egypt and inspiring further additions to the stories of Exodus, particularly the Israelites seeing a pillar of cloud and fire before and later behind their wandering procession8.

The Semitic Hyksos were purged from Egypt in 1550 B.C. after being paid off in large sums of gold and silver to leave9. From this derives the story of the Israelites being given gold, silver, clothing, and jewels by the Egyptians in preparation for their exodus. The walls of Jericho fell around 1550 B.C. according to archeological dating, suggesting the Ark of the Covenant was en route to Canaan by that point10.

The historical King Solomon lived in north-central Canaan in the decades following the Hyksos expulsion from Egypt. According to classical historian Flavius Josephus, the Hyksos founded Jerusalem11.

The historical Temple of Solomon was built around 1500 B.C. along with the megalithic temple complex at Baalbek located in modern day Lebanon12. Both were constructed by the Phoenicians using advanced technology; they were familiar with the Ark of the Covenant13.

Queen Hatshepsut (1508–1458 BC) was contemporary with the historical King Solomon and may have held personal relations with him and/or the Phoenicians and/or the Mitanni. Some believe she was Queen Sheba of the Bible14. (See the ViewZone article Yemen As It is… for further evidence that Sheba, Solomon, and the Ark existed around 1500 B.C. and not five centuries later. Clue: the script is proto-Caananite / proto-Phoenician. This is a nail in the coffin for conventional Biblical chronology).

After Hatsepshut died, her nephew and successor Thuthmose III waged military campaigns into northern Canaan and sacked Solomon’s Temple just four decades after it was built15. He then defaced Hatshepsut’s statues and attempted to erase her from history. Thuthmose III was the historical basis for the Biblical pharaoh Shishak.

Pharaoh Akhenaten, who reigned 1353 BC – 1336, imposed a tyrannical form of monotheism upon Egypt consisting of worship of a single solar deity and suppression of all others. His reign lasted almost two decades, after which the Egyptian traditionalists who were loyal to the old ways fought to purge Egypt of this radical monotheism and its followers, who may have been related to the Hyksos. Among them was a high priest of Akhenaten, named Osarseph according to Manetho, who led the exiled Semitic monotheists in an uprising against the Egyptian traditionalists. In the end he was forced to flee Egypt with his followers, and he subsequently became the historical model for the Biblical Moses16. In Canaan they became the final wave of Egyptian exiles incorporated into the story of the Israelites.

I could go on, but right now it’s more more important to focus on the purported technical capabilities of the Ark, in order to show how similar it is to the Holy Grail and what all this says about the nature of high demiurgic technology. What follows is a list of key aspects of the Ark and my interpretations of them.

Ark: Etheric and Electric Fields

The Ark is infamous for its deadly energy discharges. Those unqualified to touch, approach, or even look at the Ark would be struck dead:

Uzzah was struck dead by a burning flash of energy from the Ark as he reached out his hand to steady it. The Ark was being transported on an ox cart and one of the oxen had stumbled17.

Seventy people from the town of Beth Shemesh were killed when they opened the Ark and looked inside. The Ark was temporarily stationed there on its return from Philistine custody18.

Aaron’s sons died when, against permission, they attempted to offer incense to the Ark and a fiery energy sprang forth and consumed them19.

Those of the Kohachite branch of the Levites, who were assigned to carry the Ark and associated items once they were securely wrapped for transport, were instructed never to touch or look at these items directly, or they would die immediately20.

In attempting to explain this, others have noted that the gilded wooden box resembles a capacitor, something that stores electric charge. In this case the capacitor is two electrodes of gold sandwiching a wood insulator. Since the Ark could accumulate and store high voltage electricity, some conclude the Ark was nothing more than a big capacitor.

A large enough capacitor can indeed electrocute a person. But according to my calculations, the capacitance of the Ark is only around 3-5 nF at most, giving barely enough energy to kill one person under ideal conditions if charged to 300,000 Volts21. That kind of voltage is very difficult to reach, let alone maintain without flashover between inner and outer gold layers. To throw a spark long enough to hit someone just a few yards away, millions of Volts would be needed. There is no way a wood-based capacitor by itself can accumulate enough power to kill a crowd, let alone surround itself with a glowing energy field and perform the more miraculous feats ascribed to it.

The Ark alone cannot do what the Bible says it can, at least not according to conventional science. The top mistake fringe researchers make is limiting their interpretation of the Ark’s function to the perspective of conventional physics and engineering. Thus they propose it was merely a spark gap radio, electrical capacitor, seismic energy transducer, algae food grower, or some other mundane device22. While each of these may explain a few alleged Ark traits, they cannot account for them all.

High demiurgic technology, however, explains everything. Just as in Alchemy, conventional scientific principles may enter into the equation but are not the only ones involved. While the Ark may be a capacitor, that is only a small aspect of its total function. One has to go beyond regular physics to understand it.

For instance, it’s worth noting that, topologically speaking, the Ark is a spherical capacitor, where one electrode is nested inside the other. According to my fringe physics research, what makes spherical capacitors special is that they can receive, transmit, absorb, and emit gravity waves. It has to do with changes in charge density coupling to changes in the gravitational potential23. If the Ark was a spark gap radio, it would have had to intercept gravity waves and convert them to electrical arcing between the two winged figures. But I doubt that was its primary function.

Further, anyone familiar with orgonomy will realize that the Ark is constructed like an orgone accumulator, which is a box whose walls are made of alternating layers of organic and inorganic substances24. It’s said to attract and store orgone energy, which appears to be a grade of etheric energy closest to the material plane. Wilhelm Reich also observed a connection between negative ions and orgone energy, although the two are distinct. Their relation may be like the one between water drops and water vapor; one is a condensation or evaporation of the other. The electrical effects of the Ark may therefore be side-effects of etheric processes. Still, no orgone accumulator has ever built up enough energy to fry someone.

Since it was a chest with a lid, the Ark presumably carried something, and that object may have been responsible for its purported powers. The Bible says that the first item it carried was the stone tablet(s), also known as the Covenant or Testimony, that Moses brought out from Mount Sinai25. This fictional story has elements of truth, namely that a stone-like object was retrieved and placed in the Ark, after which it brimmed with energy. Therefore the Ark served more as a container, shield, and/or transceiver for the mysterious object placed inside it. It was also called Ark of the Testimony, as it contained something pertaining to the covenant between Hebrews and their Lord: a stone artifact called the Testimony. From this point on, when I refer to the Ark, I mean the Ark with power source installed.

That the Ark radiated energy is further supported by the detail that, when it was being transported, it was thoroughly wrapped in shielding material and its carriers were forbidden from touching or looking directly at it26. And when encamped, it was kept inside a structure known as the Tabernacle. The Tabernacle was a portable tent system designed to safely contain and surround the Ark. The first tent around the Ark was made of flax linen, the second of woven goat hair, third and fourth of dyed animal skins260. This great redundancy in layer upon layer appears to be additional shielding. And shielding is only necessary if the Ark were putting out an intense energy field.

The choice of construction materials is significant. Flax fiber has a spiral crystalline structure27. Hair and wool strands are nonlinear dielectrics because the medulla, sheath, and cortex of the strands have different dielectric constants, which makes them excellent attenuators or reflectors of gravitational / scalar / longitudinal waves28. And Baron von Reichenbach found through extensive experimentation that wool had the ability to attenuate etheric energy, the same way metal shielding attenuates electromagnetic waves29.

Copper, silver, and gold were the only metals used in constructing the Ark and the Tabernacle30. They are all non-magnetic, have only one valence electron, and share Group 11 on the periodic table. Iron was strictly forbidden. Even later, in the construction of Solomon’s Temple, supposedly well into the Iron Age, no iron nails were used. Of course in truth Solomon’s Temple being built around 1520 B.C. means it was still in the Bronze Age, but there’s another reason iron wasn’t used back then. Folklore says that fairies and other supernatural beings have an aversion to iron32. Physically it is merely magnetic and has two valence electrons, but etherically it may have undesirable effects upon etheric entities and technologies. Therefore we can infer that ferromagnetic materials interfered with the Ark’s operation, save iron-containing blood that played an important role in its function.

From the above, we can already see that the Ark’s operation included both etheric and electric elements. Again, the gilded wooden chest was not the source of the Ark’s power, rather the object it contained was what radiated an intense energy field of an etheric, scalar, and/or electrogravitational nature. This energy field could precipitate electrical effects as well, but these were side effects rather than the primary ones. Proof of this is in the construction of the Ark, Tabernacle, and Solomon’s Temple, which incorporate principles of etheric/scalar manipulation and shielding. They would be designed differently if mere electrical effects were intended.

Although the Ark has electrical properties, that is insufficient to say its function was merely electrical. This parallels reports of human encounters with alien crafts, whereby the ship exhibits strong electrical and electromagnetic interference effects, but these alone are not enough to explain how the ships can levitate because their primary propulsion fields are non-electromagnetic33. We are dealing with demiurgic technology here, not human technology.

Ark: Vortical Plasmic Intelligence

The Ark’s lid was called the “Mercy Seat” because a luminous cloud perceived as the Lord would station itself upon it, between and above the winged gold figures34. This luminous cloud was known as the “Glory of the Lord” or “Shekhina,” the latter being a Hebrew term meaning literally the dwelling, settling, or presence of the Lord35.

It would seem at first that the Shekhina is just an electrical corona emanating from the golden winged figures, were it not for the detail that the Shekhina was mobile and independent of the Ark. For instance, the Shekhina accompanied the Biblical Hebrews out of Egypt even before the Ark was built. It led them as a pillar of cloud by day and fire by night as they crossed the desert36. It settled itself on Mount Sinai37. It appeared in the desert when food was about to manifest from the heavens38. Even after the Ark was built, the Shekhina could leave it and freely travel about of its own volition39.

The Shekhina is described as looking like a “pillar of cloud” during daylight, suggesting condensation of water vapor into a visible tornado-like structure40. This makes sense because, according to orgonomy, sufficiently dense orgone energy concentrations cause water vapor condensation41. At night it glowed like a “pillar of fire” possibly indicating ionization of air, which is identically plasma. Therefore a very dense etheric energy field accounts for both the condensation of water vapor into visible mist and the glowing field of ionized gas.

The Shekhina could also diffuse into, or was simply accompanied by, a general glowing aura around the Ark. When kept in an enclosed shielded place like the inner Tabernacle tent or inner chamber of Solomon’s Temple, the Shekhina would fill the space like a luminous fog42.

Solomon’s Temple was built to house the Ark permanently. Like the Tabernacle, the Ark rested within its central chamber known as the Holy of Holies surrounded by numerous shielding walls. The energy field diffused and filled the space surrounding the Ark, creating a glowing atmosphere testifying to the power residing in Solomon’s Temple43. The first Temple was eventually destroyed and the Ark went missing, so that the second Temple of Solomon completed in 516 BC lacked both the Ark and its Shekhina. While the people rejoiced that their temple was back, the priests lamented because they knew it was missing the most critical component44.

Note that all these characteristics don’t support the notion that the pillar of fire and cloud was an alien spaceship. It’s something else. That the Shekhina could localize upon the Mercy Seat and give messages or travel about freely suggests that it possessed intelligence and volition. Enough so that the Hebrews were convinced it really was their Lord dwelling in their midst.

Ark: Water Influencer

When the Hebrews fled Egypt under pursuit by the Egyptian army, the “Lord” went ahead of them and parted the Sea of Reeds so that they could cross. Water piled up into vertical walls and allowed passage over dry ground as though a solid force field had materialized left, right, and underneath them. The waters literally congealed beneath their feet and kept them dry, which contradicts mundane explanations of wind patterns, gravitational tugs from passing planets, or tidal effects being the cause, because the latter would still leave a wet muddy mess to slough through. Dry ground and congealment indicates either a solidification of water or a firm force field upon which one could walk45.

Later the Ark was used to part the Jordan River. Levite priests carried the Ark into the river, causing water to pile up on both sides some distance away and allowing the Israelites to once again cross over what they perceived as dry ground. When the priests carried the Ark to the other side, the river resumed course46. Again, mere weather or seismic explanations don’t account for this. Note also that while the water was pushed away, the people crossing were not; therefore it wasn’t just an outwardly blowing antigravitational field but something acting selectively. Either the powered Ark created a shell-like force field or else it had direct control over water itself.

In another curious detail, cast metal basins were installed both in the Tabernacle and in Solomon’s Temple. In the Tabernacle it was a smaller bronze basin filled with water, said to be for washing. It was kept between the inner tent and a sacrificial altar in the courtyard where the Shekhina could pass over it47. In Solomon’s Temple the basin was circular, fifteen feet in diameter and almost eight feet high48. Presumably it was also filled with water, but something that large and deep excludes a basin solely for washing, especially since smaller ones for that purpose were included elsewhere in the Temple.

Therefore one could speculate that the Ark, its power source, or the Shekhina had a proclivity for water and the basins served a functional purpose toward that end. Wilhelm Reich wrote about the great affinity that orgone and water have for each other. A circular basin like that at Solomon’s Temple is the optimal shape for a whirlpool, and water scientist Viktor Schauberger indicated that whirlpools infuse water with etheric lifeforce energy49.

There is a strong water-vortex motif here. The vortex is an archetype that repeatedly accompanies the Grail and the Ark, and I will say more on this later. Recall the Siege Perilous, the seat upon which only the worthy champions of the Grail could sit lest they be swallowed by a vortex. Recall the Shekhina manifesting as a tornado-like pillar of cloud. And recall that Merenre II, Egyptian pharaoh of the first Exodus, was said to have perished in the “place of the whirlpool.”

Ark: Soul Frequency Selectivity

The Ark was selective with what effects it had upon whom. Generally speaking, those with high spiritual purity, meaning etheric and astral integrity, who obeyed protocol were left unharmed. This included the Levite Priests in charge of operating the Ark, first in the Tabernacle and later in Solomon’s Temple. In the Temple, only ones with the highest spiritual training had access to the inner chamber where the Ark was located.

Those who disobeyed protocol or were spiritually tarnished were struck dead or afflicted with sores, boils, and other symptoms of biological disintegration mimicking leprosy. The leper factor appears several times. When Moses encountered the Burning Bush in the desert, which was an early appearance of the Shekhina, his hand briefly turned leprous50. When prophetess Miriam was summoned to the Tabernacle for making a transgression, she became leprous after the “pillar of cloud” descended upon her51. In Egypt, the Hebrew immigrants and slaves were known as the “polluted ones” because of their rampant leprosy problems, which Frank Joseph and Laura Beadouin hypothesize was due to their local proximity to the Ark power source when it was still stationed in Lower Egypt.

When the Philistines captured the Ark, wherever they moved it among their territories, there broke out death, boils and in one case an outbreak of mice52. This illustrates what happens when the Ark is brought in the midst of those who have not been sufficiently trained and purified. It seems to amplify and bring into outward manifestation the quality of their psychic energy, which in the case of decadence could manifest boils and mice for instance. This, in contrast to the Ark’s enriching and fructifying influence when stationed in Biblical Jerusalem.

Only the Levite priests could openly handle the Ark without getting harmed. Moses and his brother Aaron were said to be Levites. Not only did they have to wear special clothing and follow certain safety protocol, they also had to be of sufficient spiritual purity. Compare this to the Grail, who would only let itself be cared for by a woman of perfect chastity and purity.

It wasn’t enough to simply “keep one hand in the pocket while wearing insulating shoes” because the Ark wasn’t just a high voltage device, but a Demiurgic one that translated astral/spiritual qualities into physical manifestation.

Ark: Manifesting Food

Further indication of the Ark’s demiurgic power is given in Exodus 16, where the Israelites run out of food while crossing the desert to Canaan and the Shekhina manifests food for them. It covered their camp with quail to provide meat in the evening, and coated the bare ground with dew that turned into edible granules called manna. The latter may have had Alchemical qualities.

Manna is referred to as the “grain of heaven”, “the bread of the mighty” in Psalms; it was ground up and made into cakes that tasted like “wafers made with honey” or “as the taste of fresh oil”53. The substance melted in the sun. This manna was pure in the sense of not producing any waste products in a person54. It ceased to fall once the Israelites arrived in an area and ate its grain. This shows it was not a natural phenomenon, but that there was intelligence behind it. In Exodus, the appearance of manna was cyclical, with twice the quantity raining down on the sixth day of the week and none on Sabbath, which was a holy day of rest and worship. If true, this suggests the Ark was being operated by someone who obeyed the weekly Sabbath system, thereby implying that one or a few operators manifested food for the entire camp. Contrast this with the story told in Parzival, where the Grail Stone manifested food and drink according to the visualized desires of each knight who held his empty plate and cup before it.

If this account is taken literally, then the Shekhina had the power to manifest or attract particular animals, like quail in this case. When the Philistines captured the Ark, a plague of mice broke out in one city where it was stationed, thus another case of specific animals being manifested or attracted. And according to Jewish oral tradition, King Solomon had the power to draw specific wild animals to his Temple because he knew their “names”55. A name in this context is a type of word unique to a thing, basically its spiritual archetype, astral signature, or Logoic template.

The quail and manna manifestations are reminiscent of modern Fortean phenomena in which anomalous objects and animals rain down from the sky. It’s always one type of object (like river stones) or one animal species (like fish or frogs)56. This specificity precludes their cause being water spouts picking up aquatic life and dumping it onto land. Some of what rains down aren’t even known species. Thus they appear to have been projected into this dimension. Perhaps these are natural dimensional glitches following from the same principles that the Ark employed intentionally.

Ark: Loosh Transducer

In Robert Monroe’s book Far Journeys, “loosh” is defined as metaphysical energy, encompasses everything from the crudest etheric energy produced by plants to the most refined astral energy produced via human love and suffering57. Loosh is equivalent to demiurgic energy.

It appears the Ark of the Covenant was powered, triggered, or catalyzed by externally supplied loosh. One example being the profuse level of animal sacrifices that the Israelites performed before the Ark in order to please their Lord, “sacrificing so many sheep and cattle that they could not be recorded or counted”58. Another example being King David dancing half-naked before the Ark after its homecoming from Philistine capture.

David dancing before the Ark has stumped many. But if you know anything about Native American rain dances, or the technical dances of the Sufis, or Rudolf Steiner’s Eurythmy, you’ll know that dance is a motional ritual that is highly active on an occult level and generates specific patterns of energies. The more intense the dance, the greater the energy output. “David, wearing a linen ephod, danced before the Lord with all his might”59.

Animal sacrifices are convenient loosh sources. Slaughter liberates astral energies via the emotional experience of dying, while fat and blood provide rich sources of etheric energy. As naturopaths and occultists know, fat and oil are good mediums for storing and transmitting subtle energies, hence the ancient practice of anointing with blessed oil.

As for blood, that it carries lifeforce is obvious. Even the Old Testament says as much: “For the life of a creature is in the blood” and “But be sure you do not eat the blood, because the blood is the life, and you must not eat the life with the meat”61. So a distinction was made between blood and meat; the latter could be eaten, while the blood contained the lifeforce and had other uses. The Levite priests sprinkled the blood against the Tabernacle altar on all sides and burned the fatty carcass upon it, which would entice the Shekhina to exit the tent and consume the remains62. “It is a burnt offering, an offering made by fire, an aroma pleasing to the Lord”63. This practice of sacrificing bulls, ram, and sheep was repeated regularly.

When the Ark was installed in the first Temple of Solomon, animal sacrifices were prohibited everywhere else in Jerusalem other than the Temple64. This would make sense if sacrifices absolutely had to be done in the Ark’s presence in order to be utilized, further supporting the idea that the Ark was affected or even powered by the loosh emitted by a dying animal and its blood. Manna not falling on the Sabbath may be connected to animal sacrifice being forbidden on that day.

The Jewish practice of ritual slaughter is known as Shekhita and its techniques are used to produce kosher meat. The practice involves precise cutting of the animal’s throat to ensure a calm but conscious death. Afterwards, the animal is fully drained of its blood. As a side note, it’s worth noting that cows and bulls are by definition the main targets of cattle mutilations. They are killed while fully conscious and later found completely drained of blood. The aliens who do this leave behind the carcass and only take certain organs, as well as the 5-10 gallons of blood per cow, bull, or horse65.

The Egyptian word for bull is “Ka” which is identically the Egyptian name for lifeforce energy66. This suggests lifeforce was the primary concept associated with bulls. The symbol of “Ka” is two upright arms raised in reverence, possibly stemming from a ritual pose conducive to the reception and transmission of etheric energy. The symbol is also reminiscent of bull horns, the crescent moon, and the two winged figures atop the Mercy Seat. Ka is said to determine one’s destiny, habits, and vitality. It’s clear that Ka translates to etheric body. The other subtle parts of a being, what the Egyptians called “Ba” translates to astral body. The Ba, depicted as a flying stork with a human head, is said to wander around during the night but had to return to the body by morning. Further, the Ba was said to indulge in pleasures, which fits the emotional and passionate nature of the astral body. The final component, “akh” was reached only after death when the deceased made it to the celestial realms, and this translates in occultism to “spirit.”

Hence the Egyptians sacrificed bulls, as early as the Second Dynasty of the Old Kingdom if not earlier. These so-called “Apis Bulls” were held as divine, treated with reverence, mourned at their death, and buried with honor. The bulls would be ritualistically slaughtered at the age of 28, which ties symbolically into the moon cycle, and the meat eaten by the priests and pharaoh67.

If Apis bulls were once slaughtered for loosh harvesting, eventually that purpose was forgotten but the ritual continued anyway. During later dynasties, mummified bulls were buried in the stone coffers of the underground Serapeum complex. As Christopher Dunn writes, these coffers were exquisitely carved to perfection using advanced technology equalling or surpassing anything we have today and originating from a much earlier time68. They were likely built by the same advanced pre-Egyptian civilization that constructed the Great Pyramid. Either those ancients who created the coffers also sacrificed bulls, or else the coffers were created for more utilitarian reasons and only later were they repurposed by the Egyptians to house mummified bulls.

The Apis Bull was considered a manifestation of the Egyptian god Ptah, a deity who called creation into existence, and who was considered a god of craftsmen. He is said to have spoken creation into existence. Thus Ptah is equivalent to the Logos or Demiurge. “Ptah” means “opener of the mouth”, and opening the mouth is the first step to saying a word or name69.

As you can see, much connects here: Logos, Demiurge, animal sacrifice, etheric energy, and Ark of the Covenant. Bulls supplied etheric energy through their blood to power Demiurgic processes. That is the function of the etheric body anyway, to demiurgically ensure the continuation of form in a biological system prone to entropic decay. Just that this same energy can be repurposed toward non-biological applications through ritual slaughter.

According to Christian theology, the practice of animal sacrifice ended with the coming of Jesus Christ because his dying on the cross fully atoned for our Original Sin; he was the ultimate sacrifice to end all sacrifices70. I don’t believe this exoteric interpretation for a second, but as usual there is truth lingering behind the symbolism. (See my Research Note on the Historicity of Jesus Christ).

Notice that, whereas the ancients resorted to animal sacrifice and other crude means to activate the Ark, the Grail knights merely maintained a state of spiritual transcendence to activate the Grail stone by thought alone. The Grail knights were burning with a Christ energy, not in a religious sense, but in the sense of their being vessels for the positive personification of the divine Logos. In other words, they were connected to the highest, purest, most vibrationally elevated loosh source in existence — the face of God. Further proof is seen in reality creation: you manifest quickest when you are attuned with your higher Self, heart, and Spirit. There is no greater demiurgic creational power than this, but there are certainly lesser ones.

The means to achieve such a state of connectedness has been taught by the greatest sages of the ages, one of whom was the historical character forming the nucleus of the Jesus Christ mythos, whose surviving teachings may be found in the Gospel of Thomas and the Q Source72. The Gospel of Thomas was a 2nd century reconstruction of the original teachings. Note where the New Testament differs from the Gospel of Thomas and the Q Source, and there you will see what the Church added to hijack and corrupt a genuine teaching. The Biblical Jesus versus the historical Jesus is like Sunny Delight versus Fresh Orange Juice. The fundamentalists believe Sunny-D grows on trees, the atheist skeptics refuse to believe oranges exist. The truth is between and beyond both.

Christian theology is correct that Christ ended the need for animal sacrifice, though not for the claimed reasons. Rather, his core teachings provide a superior alternative to harvesting energy from the environment to fund demiurgic creation. Theology is also right that this relates to Original Sin and mankind’s Fall from Paradise, though it’s because the spiritual transcendence embodied in the Grail knights is identically a non-Fallen state of consciousness, which Christ termed the Kingdom of Heaven.

Those who cannot tap into this higher energy/intelligence must resort to lesser methods and sources to trigger their desired demiurgic effects. These include ritual, dance, sexual energy, animal sacrifice, and human sacrifice. Even today, black magic and voodoo still make use of animal sacrifice. Synchromystics and conspiracy researchers know how the global occult elite perform mass rituals through current events, media, and entertainment, and how they engage in ritual killings through staged accidents, manipulated wars, and induced disasters. There have been tribes and cults throughout history, from Meso-America to the Mid-East to South India, who performed human and animal sacrifices in exchange for power, abundance, security, and prosperity. In all these cases, loosh energy bought desired physical manifestation.

When loosh cannot be tapped from an infinite source, cruder grades must be harvested from finite sources; the Israelite and Egyptian use of animal sacrifice illustrates this.

Ark: Sound and Pyramid Connection

Sound consistently accompanies the Ark’s operation and effects.

One example is the fall of Jericho, where the Israelites were told how to breach the city walls: “March around the city once with all the armed men. Do this for six days. Have seven priests carry trumpets of rams’ horns in front of the Ark. On the seventh day, march around the city seven times, with the priests blowing the trumpets. When you hear them sound a long blast on the trumpets, have all the people give a loud shout; then the wall of the city will collapse and the people will go up, every man straight in.”73.

Another example is the sound associated with the Shekhina’s activities on Mount Sinai: “Mount Sinai was covered with smoke, because the Lord descended on it in fire. The smoke billowed up from it like smoke from a furnace, the whole mountain trembled violently, and the sound of the trumpet grew louder and louder”74.

There are other examples of shouting, music, and trumpet blasts being present during Ark and Shekhina activities. It seems that sound, like loosh, played an important role. Frequency and amplitude are the main variables defining a sound. That volume is emphasized in the above accounts suggests that the Ark translated sonic energy into something else in proportion to its intensity, and vice versa.

In Tempest and Exodus, Ralph Ellis makes a convincing case that Mount Sinai of the Bible was actually the Great Pyramid. For instance, Mount Sinai is traditionally described as the tallest of three mountains, each of which contained deep “caves.” Moses was commanded to go into Mount Sinai. It was named for the sharpness of its peak and infamous for the steepness of its sides, and an alternate name places its location in the desert. The base of Mount Sinai was encircled by armed guards, which is unfeasible for an actual mountain, but not the Great Pyramid. An alternate for Mount Sinai is Mount Horeb, meaning “glowing mountain.” These are just a few examples. If true, it would be one among many indicators that the Ark had something to do with the Great Pyramid. When Moses emerged from Mount Sinai, he descended with the stone Testimony, which he subsequently placed into the Ark. Hence the Ark’s power source was retrieved from within the Great Pyramid, whose granite sarcophagus correlates with the stated dimensions of the Ark.

In another connection, the hieroglyph for “Apis Bull” is two gabled roofs over a box, exactly resembling the entrance to the Great Pyramid75. With the bull already linked to etheric energy via its name “Ka” also being that of the etheric body, linked to the Ark of the Covenant via animal sacrifice, and linked to the Demiurge via the bull being associated with Ptah, it’s fitting that a pyramid connection exists here as well.

The Great Pyramid today is a gutted machine with all its active components missing. The modern Pyramid versus its original form is like a bullhorn versus a megaphone; one is just a passive sound shaping funnel, the other an active sound amplifier with powered electronics. We know from experiments that even a cardboard pyramid produces strange negentropic effects, meaning the shape itself influences the ambient etheric field, but such passive structures are weak in comparison to the Great Pyramid in its original working state76. The Great Pyramid is currently a passive remnant of its original self and all its associated exotic phenomena are nothing compared to what it once could do.

The technical operation of the Great Pyramid has been well investigated by Christopher Dunn, author of The Giza Power Plant. I agree with his data, but not necessarily his conclusion that it was merely an electric power plant. I also disagree with Frank Joseph and Laura Beaudoin that it was a piezoelectric attenuator of seismic energy designed to protect the region against earthquakes. Earthquake activity certainly accompanied the Ark, but perhaps more as an effect than a cause of its function.

According to Dunn, the Pyramid’s function depended on several critical aspects: the Queen’s Chamber into which chemicals were dumped to produce hydrogen gas, the Grand Gallery serving as a sound production and amplification chamber via its hypothesized network of acoustic resonators, the antechamber with its movable vertical stone slabs that could fine tune the sound coming from the Grand Gallery, and lastly the King’s Chamber where the sonic energy was focused to vibrate the granite stones in order to piezoelectrically produce electromagnetic waves that energized the hydrogen gas filling these chambers77.

If you look carefully at the Grand Gallery and the antechamber according to Dunn’s description, you will see that they respectively mimic the human larynx and tongue/teeth/lips. If the Grand Gallery produced sound, it might have been through a collection of installed tuning forks and the Helmholtz resonators that converted their vibrations into a loud and focused beam aimed toward the King’s Chamber78. This mass of sound enters the antechamber and is modulated by the series of adjustable granite gates. In other words, the Great Pyramid functioned as a vowel resonator79. Thus a vowel sound would have been pumped with great intensity into the King’s Chamber.

In the King’s Chamber, there is a granite chest whose dimensions are similar but not identical to those of the Ark of the Covenant. Accordingly, it’s been proposed that the Ark slid into this chest, but considering the narrow entrance to the room it’s more likely that the smaller stone-like power source was placed there, with the Pyramid itself serving as the original Ark/Tabernacle/Temple. Moses bringing back the stone Testimony from inside “Mount Sinai” supports this.

One may imagine the “Ark Stone” being stationed in the King’s Chamber and saturating the connecting spaces with its luminous energy field. Plasma is ionized gas, and if the chambers were filled with pure hydrogen as Dunn proposes, then it would have been a hydrogen plasma. The entire vowel resonator may have been filled with hydrogen plasma through which tunable sound was pumped from the Grand Gallery through the formant-synthesizing antechamber. And when you pump sound waves through a charged plasma, you get longitudinal ion-acoustic waves, which produce longitudinal EM waves, which are identically gravity or time waves80. Etheric energy would have accompanied it as well, which the Pyramid by virtue of its shape alone can bias and amplify.

The five ceilings above the King’s Chamber consist of loose granite crossbeams, polished on the bottom to reflect coherent energy from below, and intentionally uneven on top to disperse incoherent energy from the top, thus functioning like a one-way mirror capable of cohering and directing the energy like a laser. These ceilings might also be mimicking the human sinus passages for additional resonance activity. Vibration of the granite beams would have produced longitudinal EM waves as well via the piezoelectric effect. The gravitational, etheric, temporal energy produced in the King’s Chamber would have been made coherent and unidirectional, aimed either upwards to the sky or downward to the center of the planet, more likely the latter since the center of the planet is always directly below a level structure on the surface. (It’s also possible that the pyramid was not designed to do anything outwardly, but rather focus all its energies inward upon the King’s Chamber to charge, initialize, and/or program the Ark Stone).

If you keep in mind that the Ark responded to sound, that Ptah (who is the Demiurge or Logos) means “opener of the mouth”, and that loud vowel sounds were likely pumped into the King’s Chamber from the larynx/mouth-like structures, you begin to see that the Great Pyramid must have had a truly awesome purpose.

Ark: Physical Terrain Transformer

Jewish oral tradition ascribed several additional powers to the Ark not mentioned in the Old Testament: 1) as it was being carried by the Israelite vanguard, the Ark cleared the path of scorpions and snakes via a burning ray issuing forth from the Mercy Seat, 2) the Levites carrying it would also be carried by it, meaning levitation. 3) the Ark could level hills and mountains in the way81.

The third claim that the Ark could alter geography and terrain seems tenuous, but there are a few potential points of correlation:

First is that the Nile River may have been intelligently engineered, as explained by Goro Adachi in his book The Time Rivers. You would have to read his book to be convinced there is something to it, but in short the features, proportions, alignments, lengths, bends, etc… of the Nile are too synchronous to be mere natural formations. Only problem is that something so large cannot be created through physical digging like with the Panama Canal (4132 miles versus 51 miles). Adachi doesn’t really explain who did it, but they must have possessed the god-like power to directly transform geography.

Second point of correlation is the Glastonbury Zodiac, a circular collection of zodiac images spanning ten miles in diameter, impressed upon the landscape of the Isle of Avalon where legend says the Grail was once kept. The zodiac images are made of streams, dykes, roads, and other landscape features. The center of the zodiac is the famous Glastonbury Tor, a stone tower built on a sacred hill82.

Third is the French town of Rennes-le-Château. Like the Glastonbury Zodiac, the position of landscape features and markers including mountain tops and churches trace out a meaningful pattern, the pentagram in this case. Rennes-le-Château is famous for its association with secret Templar activities and later the priest Saunière who struck it rich after discovering secret documents pertaining to Templar treasure or perhaps a method for making the Philosopher’s Stone83.

These alleged landscape geometries include some features not placeable by human hands. While they bear enough ambiguity to support the skeptical view that people are just reading too much into things, they also display enough order and improbability to look like “graffiti tagging” by some hyper-dimensional intelligence. Seems like everything deeply connected to the Grail, Ark, and Philosopher’s Stone bears the fingerprint of intelligent design or synchronistic orchestration, down to the prophetic codes in the Torah and Hebrew gematria.

Or consider the moon’s association with the sacred Bull, that the Hebrew calendar is based on moon cycles, that Good Friday and other key days associated with the Grail and Ark are timed to the moon… Not surprisingly, the astronomical parameters of the Moon indicate some heavy synchronistic orchestration. Books have been written on its anomalous nature including Who Built the Moon by Butler and Knight and David Icke’s latest work Human Race Get Off Your Knees.

What all of these environmental geometries have in common is that they seem synchronistically rather than mechanically formed. So instead of the Moon being towed in via tractor beams, or the Nile River being dug with antigravity bulldozers, it may have originated through intelligently guided or selected natural evolution via intentional probability biasing. Thus these geometries seem both natural and unnatural at the same time. Natural enough to please the skeptics, unnatural enough to convince the believers. The religious might just call it the handiwork of God, but it’s not that simple. I’ll talk more about this later when I get into the timewar idea, and how high demiurgic technology is capable of reality reconfiguration and timeline selection. For now I just want to mention that the Ark may very well have leveled hills and mountains, and that this isn’t without a supporting context.

Just to speculate, what would happen if the Ark Stone’s terrain-transformational power is amplified and channeled by the Great Pyramid, whose coherent energy beam points down to the center of the planet? In the Biblical story of Mount Sinai, the entire structure was quaking and trembling while a trumpeting sound grew louder and louder. It’s interesting that the Pyramid is aligned almost perfectly with true North, skewed a little today due to crustal shifts since the time of its construction. If it was built after the last pole shift, which occurred around 10,500 B.C., then it was simply positioned in alignment with the new pole. This is the most plausible case. If, however, it was built before the pole shift, then either its builders knew clairvoyantly what the new pole alignment would be, or the Great Pyramid was used to shift the planet’s axis. It’s impossible to say whether it was built before or after the pole shift, so I’ll leave this as food for thought.

Putting it All Together

I began this series by explaining the nature of the Demiurge, the universal intelligence responsible for shaping physical reality according to given archetypes. Its etheric component biases probability at the quantum level while the astral component carries the archetypal signature that directs that biasing. Together, etheric and astral energies may be called “demiurgic energies” because they have the power to intelligently alter matter, energy, space, and time — precisely the function of the Demiurge.

Demiurgic technology makes use of these energies to affect the physical universe. One example is the Philosopher’s Stone, a saline substance impregnated with dense etheric energies and tinged with the astral signature of gold, thereby being capable of transmuting lead or mercury into gold by reconfiguring their atoms at the quantum level in accordance with that signature.

By logically extending the principles of the Demiurge and Philosopher’s Stone, I can also explain the purported characteristics of the Holy Grail and Ark of the Covenant. The latter are higher applications of demiurgic technology.

The central tenet of Alchemy is to imitate Nature, not only the mineral aspect upon which all of modern science is fixated, but also the biological and spiritual aspects. In producing the Philosopher’s Stone, Alchemy is imitating the process of mineral-to-plant evolution. Notice that the Philosopher’s Stone is primarily a combination of physical and etheric bodies, with only the slightest astral component to impart a specific “flavor” to its transmutative power. Unlike ordinary minerals, it possesses lifeforce by virtue of its intrinsic etheric energy. This places it above the rank of chemicals and closer to the vegetable kingdom. Both plants and the Philosopher’s Stone have physical and etheric bodies but not much of an astral body. Just like a plant, the Stone is passive and immobile.

What separates animals from plants is that their physical bodies are more complex, their etheric bodies more intense and developed, and that they have an actively functional astral body. The animal level is where sentience and volition begins, when the first semblance of independence develops. The more complex physical body is what allows a higher order of life to inhabit it. If Alchemy were more refined, it could mimic this process of plant-to-animal evolution and take the Philosopher’s Stone beyond the vegetative level. Then the physical body of the Stone would be more ordered and perhaps crystalline, its etheric body would likewise have to be greatly intensified, and an actively functioning astral body would develop.

What separates humans from animals is that, on average, humans have egos and personalities that allow them to be independent reasoning individuals. As explained in my first article, the ego is a higher order structure that develops in the soul thanks to more sophisticated environmental programming made possible through the body being evolved enough to allow for it. Likewise, if Alchemy were taken to an even higher level, it could produce something that not only has an etheric and astral body, but possesses an independent sentient intelligence residing therein.

The above can also be explained from the perspective of thoughtforms. The most basic thoughtforms are just passive etheric energy constructs comparable to sponges or fungi. The more developed ones have an astral body as well, and like animals they are hungry critters; astral succubi are an example. But the most evolved thoughtforms possess ego and personality.

The quintessential point is this: not only does demiurgic technology make use of etheric and astral energies, but it also creates artificial physical bodies to house any order of soul or thoughtform, from the lowliest etheric constructs to the highest individualized intelligences. (This technology is alien; I can see it being used nowadays in Grey worker drones and alien spacecrafts, whereby the physical vehicle is made autonomous by a resident etheric/astral thoughtform, a literal ghost in the machine).

What is the Grail Stone, what is the Ark Stone? My current theory is that it’s an advanced crystalline object housing an equally advanced thoughtform; and not just any thoughtform, but an entitized one. The Ark and Grail Stones are the pinnacles of High Demiurgic Technology, at least of what has fallen into human hands. The entitization is what makes it oracular and volitional. The intensified etheric field is what produces the various electromagnetic emissions. External etheric, astral, and archetypal inputs modify its behavior. The probability biasing effects of its etheric field can be amplified to allow for the manifestation of physical matter according to the entered archetypes and energies.

The Ark of the Covenant, as described in the Old Testament, ought to consist of the following components: 1) the Ark Stone as the physical body, 2) the Great Pyramid, Ark box, Tabernacle, and Temple of Solomon as housing for the body, 3) the vortical Shekhina as the soul (etheric and astral bodies), and 4) Yahweh, the Lord of the Israelites, as the residing ego. In mysticism, the soul is feminine relative to Spirit, thus the Shekhina is of feminine gender in Judaism since it is identically the soul of Yahweh. When the Shekhina leaves the Ark and travels about, that is comparable to astral projection.

In summary, the Ark Stone is a physical matrix possessed by a powerful entitized thoughtform created or invoked according to the operator/priest’s instructions. The Stone itself pre-existed the original Jews, but for a time it was in their possession and they came under its control. If it seems belittling to call Yahweh a thoughtform, bear in mind that the universal Demiurge is a thoughtform also, and so are our own souls. Thoughtforms are not always insignificant things. The bigger question is whether the Demiurge, thoughtform, or soul in question is subordinate to Spirit/Creator or acting independently out of selfish motives. If the latter, then it exists only to perpetuate its own survival and carry out its prime directive through energy feeding and probabilistic control. Hence in my first article, I talked about the Corruption of the Demiurge and how its development of a lower ego divorced it from the harmony of Creation, turning it into a World Parasite. Gnostics equated Yahweh to the corrupted Demiurge.

In the next article I will discuss how the misuse of High Demiurgic Technology explains why the entitized intelligences communicating through the Ark and Grail were so unlike in their temperaments and goals, and what this means for our future. I will also get into the origins of the Grail and its role as a fulcrum in a grand chess game spanning ancient feuds to future timewars.

Further Reading

Opening the Ark of the Covenant (New Page Books, 2007) – by Frank Joseph and Laura Beaudoin. Traces the history of the Ark and Grail from ancient to modern times. I recommend this book for the broad spectrum of historical data it provides, but not for the lines of reasoning or conclusions that follow from that data. But this book does give a comprehensive overview of research leads to follow.

The Sign and the Seal (Simon & Schuster, 1992) – by Graham Hancock. Like the above book, I value this one for the historical data more than the conclusions. Hancock believes the Ark resides in Ethiopia, however as reported on Viewzone, a story inscribed on ruins dating from the 15th-16th century B.C. mentions a duplicate of the Ark being sent into Ethiopia as a decoy while the real one was hidden away, so a good portion of Hancock’s research may have been tracing the history of this decoy. Still, Hancock does a good job of drawing upon obscure sources to paint a detailed picture of the alleged powers of the original Ark.

Many more suggestions for further reading can be found throughout the footnotes below.

7Escape From Planet Egypt
Part 2 (Christian Media Research / article) mentions the El-Arish inscription where the pharaoh perished in the “Place of the Whirlpool.”

8Exodus to Arthur: Catastrophic Encounters with Comets (Mike Baillie / 1999 / Book, out of print) Baillie studies tree ring evidence to date major historical climate events. He confirms that the Thera explosion happened in 1628 B.C. And he also proposes that its plume was visible from Egypt, see pp. 105-106 and was incorporated into the Exodus accounts. If so, then Exodus merged the volcano plume with the vortical Shekhina into the same pillar of fire and cloud.

21 1) Ark capacitance calculation assumes dielectric constant = 2.9, wood thickness 1/2 inch (.0254 meters), dimensions = 2.25 × 2.25 × 3.75 feet. Capacitance is 3.3 nF for box without lid. Gives 15-20 Joules if charged to 100 kV, 200 Joules (minimum to kill a person, or jump start a heart per defibrillator devices) at 350 kV. 2) To be struck just by touching or nearing the outside, capacitance of outer surface must be considered instead, not capacitance between inner and outer conductors. Total surface area is 4 square meters, giving capacitance around 60 pF. The 200 Joule threshold requires 2.5 million Volts. Spark length in that case is 2-3 meters. 3) If carried on poles, then spark length is less than height of shoulders otherwise it would discharge to the ground, suggesting a potential around 1 million Volts. Such potentials cannot be produced by mere picking up of stray charges from the environment. More likely internal electron precipitation from ether and/or a diverging magnetic vector potential altering the local charge density and thereby creating high voltages between center of Ark and the environment.

55The Legends of the Jews, Chapter V: Solomon (Louis Ginzberg / 1905 / online book)
“When Solomon was of good cheer by reason of wine, he summoned the beasts of the field, the birds of the air, the creeping reptiles, the shades, the spectres, and the ghosts, to perform their dances before the kings, his neighbors, whom he invited to witness his power and greatness. The king’s scribes called the animals and the spirits by name, one by one, and they all assembled of their own accord, without fetters or bonds, with no human hand to guide them.”

67La Mort De Philae, Chapter VI — In the Tombs of the Apis (Pierre Loti / 1924 / article) | Not all bulls made it to age 28. Some died or were killed in their 17th, 25th, or 26th year, depending on circumstances. The “28” year is symbolically significant since that is how old Osiris was when he was murdered by his evil brother Set. Jews also have a ritual performed only once every 28 years called Birkat Ha-Hammah when the Sun is said to return to its location in the sky at the time of Creation. Of course, astronomically that isn’t true. However, Saturn has a 29.5 year cycle, which plays significantly into the Parzival tale. Saturn is also Chronos, the god from whom we get the etymology behind words relating to linear time. All of this ties into the Mayan calendar as well, with the first day of Creation being 4 Ahau, and the Jewish ritual having to do with the Sun being created on the 4th day. | Apis (Wikipedia) “When Osiris absorbed the identity of Ptah, becoming Ptah-Seker-Osiris, the Apis bull became considered an aspect of Osiris rather than Ptah. Since Osiris was lord of the dead, the Apis then became known as the living deceased one. As he now represented Osiris, when the Apis bull reached the age of twenty-eight, the age when Osiris was said to have been killed by Set, symbolic of the lunar month, and the new moon, the bull was put to death with a great sacrificial ceremony.”

77 The so-called “air shafts” in the Great Pyramid have been hypothesized by researchers like Robert Bauval to point to certain ritually significant stars. Evidence says otherwise; for example, the shafts are bent when viewed from above and don’t have a continuous line of sight; some end within the Pyramid. See: The Great Pyramid and the Axis of the Earth – Part 1 (Scott Creighton and Gary Osborn / article). Chris Dunn’s analysis fits the evidence better, and he proposed a strictly utilitarian purpose behind the shafts.
